Lexington County Collection and Recycling Center at Ball Park Road in Lexington

A county-run recycling center on Ball Park Road that locals stop by to drop off household recyclables. People from Lexington and nearby areas use it when cleaning out garages, prepping for yard work, or sorting curbside overflow. The site mainly focuses on keeping materials out of the landfill and handles the common residential recyclables.

The entrance has a small attendant booth and a drive-in layout where cars and small trailers pull up; larger trucks have space to maneuver but give extra room. The recycling bins and containers sit a short drive past the booth, usually grouped by material so it’s a quick walk from vehicle to bin. There’s a scale near the entrance/exit - county centers often weigh loads, so be prepared to stop on the way out. Weekends and spring cleanup days get busy, and things can back up at the drop-off points.
